Well, we survived the month of Oct which is usually infamous for many of its stock market crashes in the past such as The Wall Street Crash of 1929, also known as Black Tuesday (October 29), the Great Crash, or the Stock Market Crash of 1929, on October 24, 1929 ("Black Thursday").
This month is rather quiet with low instream of dividends. But managed to get my monies back for SMRT which was privatised by Temasek Holding. The majority of the fund will go back into my warchest to be deployed later into other assets.
STI vs my portfolio
My portfolio is still hovering in the negative region :( but good news is that I beat STI at least a consolation prize :)
